Egzòd 28
1 W'a pran Arawon ak pitit li yo: Nadab, Abiyou, Eleaza, Itama, w'a wete yo nan mitan moun Izrayèl yo, w'a fè yo vin jwenn ou. W'a mete yo apa pou yo sèvi m' prèt.
Call to yourself Aaron your brother and his sons—Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar—from among the Israelites so that they may serve me as priests.
2 W'a fè rad pou Arawon, frè ou la, rad pou li mete lè l'ap fè sèvis, pou l' ka byen abiye, pou moun ka rekonèt grad li.
You must make for Aaron, your brother, garments that are set apart to me. These garments will be for his honor and splendor.
3 W'a pale ak atizan ki konnen metye yo byen. Se mwen menm ki ba yo tout ladrès yo genyen an. W'a mande yo pou yo fè rad Arawon yo, pou ou ka mete l' apa pou mwen pou l' ka sèvi m' prèt.
You must speak to all people who are wise in heart, those whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, so that they may make Aaron's garments to set him apart to serve me as my priest.
4 Men ki rad pou yo fè: yon plastwon, yon jile, yon gwo rad long, yon chemiz byen bwode, yon gwo mouchwa pou vlope tèt ak yon sentiwon. y'a fè rad sa yo pou Arawon, frè ou la, ak pou pitit li yo pou yo ka sèvi m' prèt.
The garments that they must make are a breastpiece, an ephod, a robe, a coat of woven work, a turban, and a sash. They must make these garments that are set them apart to me. They will be for your brother Aaron and his sons so that they may serve me as priests.
5 Pou fè travay la, atizan yo va sèvi ak lò ak twal siperyè koulè ble, violèt ak wouj ansanm ak twal fen.
Craftsmen must use fine linen that is gold, blue, purple, and scarlet.
6 y'a fè jile a ak lò ak twal siperyè koulè ble, violèt ak wouj ansanm ak twal fen blan tise byen sere. y'a fè bèl bodri byen fèt sou li.
They must make the ephod of gold, of blue, purple, and scarlet wool, and of fine-twined linen. It must be the work of a skillful craftsman.
7 Va gen de zèpòlèt, yonn chak bò jile a. Se yo ki pou tache moso devan an ak moso dèyè a ansanm.
It must have two shoulder pieces attached to its two upper corners.
8 Bèl sentiwon byen bwode ki pou kenbe jile a va fè yon sèl pyès ak li, ak menm kalite bodri a sou li tou. y'a fè l' an lò ak twal siperyè koulè ble, violèt ak wouj, ansanm ak twal fen blan tise byen sere.
Its finely-woven waistband must be like the ephod; it must be made of one piece with the ephod, made of fine twined linen that is gold, blue, purple, and scarlet.
9 W'a pran de pyè oniks, w'a grave non branch fanmi douz pitit Izrayèl yo sou yo.
You must take two onyx stones and engrave on them the names of Israel's twelve sons.
10 W'a grave non sis sou yon pyè, ak non sis sou lòt la, dapre laj yo, depi pi gran an jouk pi piti a.
Six of their names must be on one stone, and six names must be on the other stone, in order of the sons' birth.
11 Avèk ladrès òfèv ki konn grave non sou bag, ou ankò ladrès atizan ki konn fè so, w'a grave non branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo sou de pyè yo, epi w'a moute pyè yo chak sou yon moso lò.
With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engraving on a signet, you must engrave the two stones with the names of Israel's twelve sons. You must mount the stones in settings of gold.
12 W'a moute yo sou de zèpòlèt jile a pou yo pa bliye branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo. Konsa, Arawon va pote non yo sou zepòl li pou Seyè a pa janm bliye yo.
You must put the two stones on the shoulder pieces of the ephod, to be stones to remind Yahweh of Israel's sons. Aaron will carry their names before Yahweh on his two shoulders as a reminder to him.
13 W'a pran de moso lò pou moute pyè yo sou yo.
You must make settings of gold
14 W'a fè de ti chenn ak pi bon kalite lò ki genyen. Chenn yo va trese tankou ti kòdon. W'a tache yo sou moso lò yo.
and two braided chains of pure gold like cords, and you must attach the chains to the settings.
15 W'a fè yon plastwon pou yo mete bagay y'a sèvi pou chache konnen sa Bondye vle. Se yon bon atis ki pou fè travay bodri a tankou pou jile a. W'a fè l' an lò ak twal siperyè koulè ble, violèt ak wouj ansanm ak twal fen blan tise byen sere.
You must make a breastpiece for decision making, the work of a skillful workman, fashioned like the ephod. Make it of gold, of blue, purple, and scarlet wool, and of fine linen.
16 Plastwon an va mezire nèf pous kare kare, l'a double.
It is to be square. You must fold the breastpiece double. It must be one span long and one span wide.
17 W'a moute kat ranje pyè sou li. Nan premye ranje a, va gen yon pyè woubi, yon pyè topaz ak yon pyè emwòd.
You must place in it four rows of precious stones. The first row must have a ruby, a topaz, and a garnet.
18 Nan dezyèm ranje a, va gen yon pyè malachi, yon pyè safi ak yon pyè dyaman.
The second row must have an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.
19 Nan twazyèm ranje a, va gen yon pyè opal, yon pyè agat ak yon pyè ametis.
The third row must have a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst.
20 Nan katriyèm ranje a, va gen yon pyè krizolit, yon pyè oniks ak yon pyè jasp. y'a moute tout pyè sa yo chak sou yon moso lò.
The fourth row must have a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper. They must be mounted in gold settings.
21 Va gen douz pyè ak non branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo grave sou yo, yon non sou chak pyè. y'a grave non yo tankou lè òfèv ap grave bag.
The stones must be arranged by the names of Israel's twelve sons, each in order by name. They must be like the engraving on a signet ring, each name standing for one of the twelve tribes.
22 W'a pran pi bon kalite lò ki genyen, w'a fè de ti chenn pou plastwon an. W'a trese yo tankou ti kòdon.
You must make on the breastpiece chains like cords, braided work of pure gold.
23 W'a fè de ti bag an lò, w'a tache yo nan de bout anwo plastwon an.
You must make two rings of gold for the breastpiece and must attach them to the two ends of the breastpiece.
24 W'a mare de ti chenn yo nan de bag yo.
You must attach the two golden chains to the two corners of the breastpiece.
25 W'a pran de lòt bout chenn yo, w'a fè yo pase pa devan jile a, w'a tache yo sou de moso lò ki sou zèpòlèt jile a.
You must attach the other ends of the two braided chains to the two settings. Then you must attach those to the shoulder pieces of the ephod at its front.
26 W'a fè ankò de lòt bag an lò, w'a tache yo nan de bout anba plastwon an sou lanvè, nan bòdi a toupre jile a.
You must make two rings of gold, and you must put them on the other two corners of the breastpiece, on the edge next to the inner border.
27 W'a fè de lòt bag an lò ankò, w'a tache yo anba zèpòlèt jile a pa devan, toupre kouti a anwo tèt sentiwon bwode a.
You must make two more gold rings, and you must attach them to the bottom of the two shoulder pieces of the front of the ephod, close to its seam above the finely-woven waistband of the ephod.
28 y'a mare de bag plastwon an ak de bag jile a ansanm ak yon kòdon ble pou plastwon an bat sou sentiwon jile a. Konsa, plastwon an p'ap ka soti detache sou jile a.
They must tie the breastpiece by its rings to the ephod's rings with a blue cord, so that it might be attached just above the ephod's woven waistband. This is so that the breastpiece might not become unattached from the ephod.
29 Lè Arawon va antre nan kote ki apa pou Bondye a, l'a pote non branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo sou kè l', sou plastwon an, konsa Seyè a p'ap janm bliye yo.
When Aaron goes into the holy place, he must carry the names of the people of Israel over his heart in the breastpiece for decision making, as a continuing memorial before Yahweh.
30 W'a mete nan plastwon an ourim yo ak toumim yo. Konsa, Arawon va pote yo sou kè l' lè l'ap parèt devan lòtèl Seyè a. Lè l'a kanpe devan lòtèl Seyè a, l'a toujou pote sou kè l' sa li sèvi pou fè pèp Izrayèl la konnen volonte m'.
You are to put the Urim and the Thummim in the breastpiece for decision making, so they may be over Aaron's heart when he goes in before Yahweh. Thus Aaron will always carry the means for making decisions for the people of Israel over his heart before Yahweh.
31 W'a pran twal ble pou fè rad ki ale anba jile a.
You will make the robe of the ephod entirely of blue fabric.
32 Nan mitan rad la, w'a fè yon twou pou l' pase tèt li. W'a mete yon doubli nan ankoli a, tankou yo fè l' pou varèz an po bèt yo, pou li pa chire.
It must have an opening for the head in the middle. The opening must have a woven edge round about so that it does not tear. This must be the work of a weaver.
33 Sou tout woulèt anba rad la, w'a pran twal ble, violèt ak wouj, w'a fè bodri an fòm grenad ak ti klòch an lò nan mitan yo.
On the bottom hem, you must make pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn all around. Gold bells must be between them all around.
34 Sou tout woulèt rad la va gen yon grenad, yon ti klòch, yon grenad, yon ti klòch, jouk yo fè tout tou rad la.
There must be a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate—and so on—all around the hem of the robe.
35 Se rad sa a Arawon va mete sou li lè li pral fè sèvis. Lè l'ap antre kote yo mete apa pou Bondye a pou l' parèt devan lòtèl Seyè a, ansanm ak lè l'ap soti, y'a tande ti klòch yo ap sonnen. Konsa li p'ap mouri.
The robe is to be on Aaron when he serves, so that its sound can be heard when he goes into the holy place before Yahweh and when he leaves. This is so that he does not die.
36 W'a fè fè yon ti plak ak pi bon kalite lò ki genyen. Tankou lè y'ap fè so, w'a grave pawòl sa a sou li: Apa pou Seyè a.
You must make a plate of pure gold and engrave on it, like the engraving on a signet, “Holy to Yahweh.”
37 W'a mare l' sou devan mouchwa tèt la avèk yon ti kòdon ble.
You must attach this plate by a blue cord to the front of the turban.
38 Arawon va mete l' sou fwon li, konsa Arawon va pran sou tèt li tou sa pèp Izrayèl la va fè ki mal lè y'ap pote ofrann apa yo bay Seyè a. Arawon va toujou pote l' sou fwon li pou ofrann yo ka toujou fè Seyè a plezi.
It must be on Aaron's forehead; he must always bear any guilt that might attach to the offering of the holy gifts that the Israelites set apart to Yahweh. The turban must be always on his forehead so that Yahweh may accept their gifts.
39 W'a fè chemiz la ak mouchwa tèt la ak twal fen blan, ansanm ak yon sentiwon bwode byen bèl.
You must make the coat with fine linen, and you must make a turban of fine linen. You must also make a sash, the work of an embroiderer.
40 W'a fè rad, sentiwon ak bonnèt pou pitit gason Arawon yo tou, pou yo ka byen abiye pou moun ka rekonèt grad yo.
For Aaron's sons you must make coats, sashes, and headbands for their honor and splendor.
41 Apre sa, w'a mete rad yo sou Arawon, frè ou la, ansanm ak pitit gason l' yo. Lèfini, w'a vide lwil sou tèt yo, w'a ba yo pouvwa pou yo fè sèvis Bondye. W'a mete yo apa pou mwen pou yo ka sèvi m' prèt.
You must clothe Aaron your brother, and his sons with him. You must anoint them, ordain them, and set them apart to me, so that they may serve me as priests.
42 W'a fè kalson ak twal fen pou yo pou kò yo pa parèt anba rad la. Kalson yo va pran depi nan ren desann wotè jenou yo.
You must make for them linen undergarments to cover their naked flesh, that will cover them from the waist to the thighs.
43 Se pou Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo toujou pote kalson yo lè y'ap antre nan Tant Randevou a, osinon lè y'ap pwoche bò lòtèl la pou fè sèvis nan kote ki apa pou Bondye a. Konsa, yo p'ap fè sa ki mal, yo p'ap mouri. Sa se yon lwa k'ap la pou tout tan pou Arawon ak tout pitit pitit gason li yo apre li.
Aaron and his sons must wear these garments when they enter the tent of meeting or when they approach the altar to serve in the holy place. They must do this so they would not be guilty or else they would die. This is a permanent law for Aaron and his descendants after him.
